Quick sketches are usually ,for me , extreme in feeling, but full of
aesthetic qualities, that I find must be compromised without
destroying those qualities all together. Not easy! but a must.

That's what balance of form and function is.
Is that attitude unreasonably extreme ?
This reminds me of Sen. Goldwater who advocated extremism in
support of
liberty. Hitler liked the same idea.
I would say that without that extremism, all we'll get is
mediocrity.
Mediocrity is a special condition that's tough to define. But
extremism is
not the same as quality or innovation. If it is then you'd better
retract
your views re much contemporary art. I don't think your efforts to
be witty
with words are supporting your views.
